Cold Cold Change Lyrics - Head Injuries - Midnight Oil

Cold cold change, we were so excited 

But you came and went so soon 

Cold cold change, we were not invited 

We smiled all the while we were taken in 

Cold cold change, bringing in the winter 

Freezing up the water, closing up the mind 

One more danger, gonna have to deal with 

One last moment fading all the time 

But no lasting change, well we were turned around 

We jumped in the air to see over the wall 

No master plan, it's a bad design 

Significant time in spite of us all 

Cold cold change, we were so excited 

Waiting on the outside, waiting to begin 

Left us all angry and bewildered 

Laughing at the way we were taken in 

You better lock the door, turn it off (the light) 

We'll leave the nights alone, better keep me hoping 

That the change is over, the ice is gone 

And when the weather's warmer you can hear me shouting yeah 

(Hirst/Moginie)
